Hello,

do people still use IRC, and what channels are you guys normally on?

Which client do you use? What kind of errors do you get?

If you are using the link "IRC Window", which browser you are using, because I doubt it works with Amiga browsers.

Okay, if irc.amigans.net is meant to forward me on to SE.AmigaWorld.net, then I guess there is no issue. Joining #amigaworld.

Nope... but then again... nothing beats the retro feel of IRC.
I use discord mainly on my X86 machines.

Right, I am confused by that. All I know is that I am in a room named "#amigaworld" (SE.AmigaWorld.net), if that is where most people from here are then that is fine.

I'll consider pidgin at some point too.

Just type "/list" (without quote marks) to get the current list of channels.

Pidgin was working with Discord last year but recently it would join the channels but not show and posts. I use AmIRC on my Amiga for IRC and Discord webapp for that.

Anyone have better luck with Pidgin?

For me, pidgin brings the messages from a channel, but when I write something, this is not visible to the other users. So, it doesn't work quite well right now.

I'd love to see an update on it.

How do you login to discord?
When i try pidgin says:

Need CAPTCHA to login. Consider using harmony first, then retry.

I have a slightly updated version of pidgin that works with messenger again.
Would be nice to try it with discord too.

I've downloaded and ported the latest discord plugin for pidgin. The author startet to implement an authorisation process using a QR code, but it is not finished yet.
As far as I know, discord wants to make a special authorisation, when you login with a certain device the first time. It seems it uses CAPTCHAs and/or QR codes for this.
I don't know, how we can handle this as I don't have a discord account.

What I did was to create an account and add it by selecting discord. But I did this when the latest pidgin was released. Maybe, back then there was no CAPTCHAS required.

I can give it a try again when cygnused release a newer version.
